Manfred Drake works as the manager in the royal city hotel. It is difficult to say whether he does his job well or not: The rooms of that hotel are very good, but the meals do not taste well at all, so you will better eat somewhere else.
Klaus-Norbert-Peter Pix (his friends just call him Knoppix) is the godson of Mr. Drake. His parents live in a small settlement 20 kilometers north of the city. Unfortunately there is no school in that settlement and the street to the city is in a really bad shape, so that Knoppix's parents and Mr. Drake agreed that Knoppix should live with Mr. Drake.
Knoppix loves sciences and is a small mastermind. In biology and chemistry he is the best in his class (far better than his teachers). About a year ago he invented some medcine against all sorts of viruses. (If you hear about Knoppicillin - as it was called in the German c't magazine - you know where it comes from.)
Mrs. Lin Dows is the girl-friend of Mr. Drake. She owns the restaurant "To the diving bird". It is known far beyond the city boundary that you can dine very well at a favourable price in this restaurant.
